Lerner & Rowe Gives Back, the nonprofit arm of Lerner & Rowe Injury Attorneys, is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to its mission of making a difference in the lives of people in need by giving back to the community. 

It was founded by Kevin Rowe, managing partner of Lerner & Rowe, P.C., who wanted to show his daughter the values of humanity and to help those less fortunate. The organization helps redirect youth, comfort those in pain and give hope to those in need by serving through three charitable arms: Youth programs, health and human services, and public safety. 

It accomplishes these goals by raising money through an annual Charity Golf Classic and annual Cornhole Tournament, grant program, and volunteer events such as an annual backpack drive and annual Thanksgiving meal giveaways. For more information, please visit lernerandrowegivesback.org.
